The film moves at even pace, not too fast, not too slow and for once there isn’t any scene that needs to be cut. The idea was good but the execution by Tinu Verma wasn’t exactly superb.Įditing by V.N Mayekar is good. The film also introduces something never witnessed by cinema before: shadow fighting. Aamir saying Jo Jeeta Woh Sikandar) or Aamir reminding Salman that his dad has written Sholay. Strangely enough, they also put in some real life facts (e.g. He, along with Dilip Shukla, does a tremendous job with the use of unique expressions (e.g. He also excels in the dialogue department.
It can be easily noted that Santoshi’s films all boast of excellent screenplays except for Barsaat, which was poorly written. However, he makes this task looks child’s play as he brings the best out of some scenes. It is obviously difficult to write a good screenplay as far as a comedy film is concerned.
He keeps his mind focused on the actual plot without going overboard and changing routes as opposed to E.Niwas in Love Ke Liye Kucch Bhi Karega. In other words, he tries to be the public himself and that’s proves to be a strong factor of his success. He is one intelligent director, as he really knows what he wants and constantly keeping in mind that the aim is to make the audience laugh. Some of them are real standouts and you feel that comedy doesn’t get better than this.
Andaz apna apna comedy video full#
His handling of each scene with great care again deserves full mark. Santoshi is at his best in the directing department. The film is bound to have Indian and non-Indian audiences laughing. The use of action-based comedy rather than words-based enhances the beauty of the film. Santoshi throws in several humouristic situations in order to keep the viewer entertained. It’s not a complex story by any means but yet it manages to hold one’s attention from the beginning till the end. The way the story was conceived and developed is applauseworthy. Raj Kumar Santoshi deserves a pat on his back for attempting an all out comedy film and for coming out of it with flying colours. As the story progresses, it turns out to be a mad chase for Ram Gopal Bajaj’s wealth, full of humour, romance, thrills and chills. So Teja plants Balla (Shehzad) and Robert (Viju Khote) in Raveena’s house to help him fulfil his ambition. Enter Teja (Paresh Rawal in a double role) whose sole ambition in life has been to grab his twin brother Ram Gopal Bajaj’s millions. Amar and Prem see themselves get rich quick and both woo Reveena, one by being a mentally disturbed individual and the other being a doctor, while each tries to outdo the other. The lucky man to wed Raveena will inherit her father Ram Gopal Bajaj’s ( Paresh Rawal) entire wealth. Both Amar and Prem sell their father’s shop and house respectively, and zero in on a hill station where a beautiful heiress Raveena ( Raveena Tandon) has come from London accompanied by her friend cum secretary Karishma ( Karisma Kapoor) with the intention of getting married to a virtuous Indian. Amar is the son of an honest barber, Murli Manohar ( Deven Varma) and Prem is the son of Bakelal Bhopali (Jagdeep), a hardworking tailor in Bhopal. Amar spends his time roaming in the neighborhood or quarreling with his father while Prem aspires to be an actor (he’s too dumb to be one though). Their intention is to get rich by taking all the short cuts in the book. The simple story deals with the life of two men, Amar ( Aamir Khan) and Prem ( Salman Khan). It is arguably one of the best comedic films ever made in Bollywood history. However, the film definitely delivers the goods and surely ranks among one of the best comedy films in the 90’s and in the annals of Hindi cinema. Released in 1994, Andaz Apna Apna did not fare too well at the box office probably because of its immediate release on video. The title, Andaz Apna Apna and the result is laughs, and a lot of them. If ever you feel down there is a good remedy, which can easily bring a smile back to your face.
